A tour of the largest government-approved pot greenhouse in Canada

Metro Vancouver is home to the largest government-approved cannabis greenhouse in the country.

Canopy Growth Corp. — a large, licensed grow operation — took over an Aldergrove greenhouse complex that was once used to grow peppers.

“There’s an incredible amount of expansion that goes on in our business,” Alan Cooke of Canopy Growth said. “I think this facility alone is just north of $70 million in expansion and retrofitting. We’re very serious about what we do and we’re moving very, very quickly.”

The greenhouse complex takes up about 30 football fields and neighbours are concerned about the smell and noise it generates.
